Wednesday we were debating if Teagan Kavan is best pitcher in Texas history. I think we have to think bigger. 1st B2B MOP in #wcws history. Making case for one of greatest ever. SO TOUGH.
Paul Pierce says the Spurs can’t guard Brunson same way they guarded SGA, his offensive package is way better than SGA’s:
“I don’t care what nobody say. But the way he gets into the mid-range with floaters and his hesi and it throws you off. His game is kind of unorthodox in a way that it throws you off with his off balance shots off the glass, left hand, going right, left. And so I think you have to figure out a way to get the ball out of his hands of that nature.”
